ECONOMICS OF ORGANIZATION AND STRATEGY

For this final SLP, imagine that your business (Quality Fast Foods) has become successful and you are now considering expanding the scope of your company. Carefully review all of the required background materials, and then write a three-page paper answering the following questions. Make sure to cite at least one of the required readings for each of your answers:

  1. If you were to engage in horizontal integration, which of your direct competitors would you decide to acquire? Overall, do you think horizontal integration is the best long-run plan for your business if it is successful?
  2. Do you think your business should vertically integrate over time? Should you engage in backwards vertical integration, forward vertical integration, both, neither? Explain your reasoning.
  3. How about diversification/conglomerate strategy? Any advantage to diversifying your business? Discuss unrelated diversification and related diversification and whether or not these strategies might be good for your business. Explain your reasoning.

SLP Assignment Expectations

  • Answer the assignment questions directly.
  • Stay focused on the precise assignment questions. Do not go off on tangents or devote a lot of space to summarizing general background materials.
  • Make sure to use reliable and credible sources as your references. Articles published in established newspapers or business journals/magazines are preferred. If you find articles on the Internet, make sure they are from a credible source.
  • Reference your sources of information with both a bibliography and in-text citations. See the Student Guide to Writing a High-Quality Academic Paper, including pages 11- 14 on in-text citations.

Required Reading

To start off this module, take a look at the following video for a relatively comprehensive overview of several concepts from this module. This video is a little longer than previous videos you’ve watched for this class, but covers very useful information such as vertical and horizontal integration strategies as well as conglomerate (diversification) strategy:

Holden, P. (2011). Business integration – vertical, horizontal and conglomerate. St. Lawrence College. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gG9xNElFzRk

Now delve a little deeper into this subject with the following chapter that will reinforce what you’ve learned in the video plus some important additional concepts such as transaction costs:

Now read the following chapter for more detail on the concepts of vertical integration and horizontal integration. Also covered in this chapter is diversification strategy, also known as conglomerate strategy. Pay attention to the discussion of related versus unrelated diversification:

discussion polynomials

In this discussion, you will create your own scenario involving polynomials and think about all of the applications of polynomials, including scientific notation, area, perimeter, volume, rates of change, speeds, time, and so on. Consider a problem using one of these applications and pose it in your initial discussion post. In your follow-up posts, please provide a solution to a scenario posted by a classmate, and be sure to ask questions and offer suggestions.

For example:

In a game in the 2018 College World Series, SNHU scored two runs against Augustana University. If Augustana scored 4 more than twice as many runs as the SNHU Penmen, what was the final score? Let s represent the runs earned by the Penmen. Write a polynomial function P that represents the final score in terms of s.

In the actual game, the Penmen scored 2 runs. What was the final score?

P(s) = 2s + 4

P(2) = 2(2) + 4

P(2) = 8

PLEASE REVIEW THE RUBRIC ATTACHED. & REPLY TO THE 2 PEER DISCUSSIONS POSTED BELOW.

PEER POST #1 – Peggy Kremer

Nick eats 2 slices of pizza and Ryan eats 3 times more pizza minus one as many slices, how many slices does Ryan eat?

p(x)=3x-1

p(x)=3(2)-1

p(x)=5

5 slices

PEER POST #2 – Durval Ferreira

Maybe a bit simple but may post additional one.

My son wants to save for college now that he has a job. I told him that a year in university is $15,000. I will invest 5,000 as a gift in an fixed certificate deposit account with an interest rate of 8.00% compounded yearly. He has two years to save the difference. How much will he need to save ?

Solution:

x = Time in years

y = Amount in investment account

z = Amount needed

y = $5,000 * (1.08)x

z = 2 : y =$5,000 * (1.08)2 == $5,400

$15,000 – $5,400 = $9,600

$9,600 is need in two years

This week, you will conduct system analysis. System analysis is a process of collecting, organizing, and evaluating data about the information systems and the environment in which the system operates. For this section, you need to answer the following questions:

  • What is the current system for your fictional healthcare organization?
  • What problems do you have with the current system? Where do its weaknesses lie?
  • What changes will the implementation of a new system yield, and how will they impact the working of the organization?
  • Would you like to extend the existing system or replace it?
  • What is your phase-out plan for the existing system?

To support your work, use your course and textbook readings and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.

When the word homeless is used by individuals, people begin to visualize older individuals as those who are homeless in communities. It is generally thought that homelessness only applies to people who are older in age and are destitute. According to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, physiological needs are basic to human growth and development. Without the basic necessities of life to include food, clothing, and shelter, individuals including children will become dependent on others for the basic necessities. Homeless does not affect just one specific group of individuals, it can affect individuals at any age and at any time. According to the National Center for Homeless Education (2016), there are more than 1 million children and youth in the United States who are experiencing homelessness. The McKinney-Veto Act defines homelessness for children as individuals who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence (Cook, 2015, p.396). Factors that contribute to homeless children include a lack of affordable housing, violence in the homes, a lack of social support, behavioral health issues, medical issues, poverty, economic insecurity, a lack of financial resources, and their involvement in the child welfare system (Anooshian, 2005, p. 373).

Homeless children face the risk of exploitation. Exploitation is defined as an action or fact of treating someone unfairly in order to benefit from their service. Children who are homeless will need food, shelter, clothing, safety and security, and socialization. In addition, there may be self-esteem issues due to the basic needs not being met. Homeless children may also experience a deprivation of family support and are looking for someone to love them, care for their needs, and provide them with safety and security. Without safety and security, they can be exploited. Exploitation of children may include sexual exploitation, human trafficking, and labor trafficking. Children who are victims of the above are usually vulnerable and will need the help of a dependable and trustworthy adult to provide them with not only Maslow’s first level of needs but also safety and security which is Maslow’s second level of needs (Kellerman, 2014, p.540). As a human service professional, an individual can most effectively tend to the needs of homeless children and their families by providing them with information that would prevent a child from becoming a victim of sexual exploitation, human trafficking, and labor trafficking. The human service professional will also need to provide counseling services, educational services, and psychological services for both homeless children and homeless families with children where appropriate. In addition, a human service professional would need to make sure that homeless children are aware that there are helpful resources in the community. These resources may include emergency shelters and crisis intervention centers that will work with them to provide them with support, safety needs, and an opportunity to reconnect with their families.
